51/49 that's the way that we divide so
Vote! Vote! Get out and fucking Vote!
If fuckheads take power again we'll blame you if you don't.
If the candidates for leadership
Are a shit or a shit or another shit
This shit believes in reward
And this shit punishment
Ooooooh
Which one of these two do you choose?
If the candidates for leadership
Are a shit or a shit or another shit
One shit wants to save the NHS
And the other has sex with pigs say...
Ooooooh
Which one of these two do you choose?
If the candidates for leadership
Are a shit or a shit or another shit
Just put your tick in any box
Your choice might not get picked
Ooooooh
Which one of these two do you choose?
If the candidates for leadership
Are a shit or a shit or another shit
If you put your trust in no-one
And you think the system's rigged
Ooooooh...
Vote!

COCKROACHES
We are cockroaches we can live in the cracks
We can thrive on the scraps on the floor
We’ll take what you’re dropping and we’ll make it work out
We’re waiting for a foot through the door
We’re still here
We’re still all here
We wait
You call us the problem but we don’t really care
'Cause we’ll be around longer than you
And soon you’ll move on long forgotten and gone
A nuclear attack’s overdue
We’re still here
We’re still all here
We wait
The pesticide ain’t working
The poison does nothing
We’re constantly mutating
We’re patiently waiting
And your efforts are all in vain
We’re hardier than you
We’re waiting for a new strain
Of plague or killer flu...

DIY OR DIE
We got a penny for a plectrum and the drum kit’s packing in
We got a bar stool for a snare stand cos all the parts are missing
But none of that matters when there’s people helping out
It’s the spirit of community that's what its all about
DIY
DIY or die
The PA’s cutting out and the mics all gives us shocks
so we cover them in bog roll and wrap them with our socks
But none of that matters when there’s people helping out
It’s the spirit of community that's what its all about
DIY
DIY or die
Here's to all that help out to keep the scene alive
Putting in for nothing back because of you we thrive
The punx, promoters, bands the zinesters
Non-profit labels and everyone involved!
DIY
DIY or die
Book your own shows
Make your own label
Zines, records, flyers
Do it yourself DIY or die
DIY
DIY or die...

Your ideologies are not welcome round here

EMPTY REWARDS
Dig dig dig with a shovel and a pick
Work is necessary, part of the progression
You say that daily labour should be my obsession
So I can buy a better future and give my life away
Drop everything I’m dreaming of and do just as you say
You say I should dig
Dig dig dig with a shovel and a pick
I should get on my hands and knees and I should beg beg beg to you
Is that what you want me to do?
Well I’m never gonna beg!
I should sacrifice my time for society
Be thankful for the pennies that you pay me
So I can buy better furniture and give my life away
Drop everything I’m dreaming of and do just as you say
You say I should dig
Dig dig dig with a shovel and a pick
I should get on my hands and knees and I should beg beg beg to you
Is that what you want me to do?
Well I’m never gonna beg!
What are we working towards?
A lifestyle that we can’t afford?
What are we working towards?
Empty rewards
Dig dig dig with a shovel and a pick
Empty rewards
Well I’m not gonna dig
Dig dig dig with a shovel and a pick
I'm never going to dig
Dig dig dig with a shovel and a pick
So don't ask me to dig
Dig dig dig with a shovel and a pick
I won’t get on my hands and knees and I won’t beg beg beg to you.
Is that what you want me to do?
Yeah that's what you want me to do
Well I’m never gonna beg!

There will always be away
There’s always another way
Another way to live our lives
We will find a way

DEMONS
I see racists, i see hate
Arm in arm with a fascist state
The KKK, they get their say
And no one tells them to step down
They count on mass apathy
Your indifference is the key
Slipping through the cracks to spew
Their filth all thanks to you
Deep down in the shadows the demons hide
And they’re on the rise
Deep down in the shadows the demons hide
And you know, but you turn a blind eye
I see racists i see hate
Arm in arm with a fascist state
They kill kill kill and yet you still
Question if we should take them down
You say they’re just misguided
Uneducated and stupid
While they spread their vile hatred
And shoot more people dead
Deep down in the shadows the demons hide
and they’re on the rise
Deep down in the shadows the demons hide
and you know but you turn a blind eye
There’s been a worldwide shift to the right
I don’t know why but I don’t like it
What’s the point in national pride
if it just results in endless fighting
Integrate, don't segregate
division just derives more hate
Its fundamentally wrong
Why can’t we all just get along
We’ve got to drive these demons out of town
We’ll drive them out of town
Fight racism fight the hate
That controls the fascist state
Can’t you see your apathy
Will never ever take them down
Any little actions help
To steer us all away from hell
Anything can help us win
So let me hear you sing
Deep down in the shadows the demons hide
And they’re on the rise
Deep down in the shadows the demons hide
And we know, so lets put things right
And we all fucking see you so we’re gonna fucking put things right
Now!

BLOOD IN THE OIL
I get my sugarcane from the sugar mill mafia
And I get a good deal from the battery farm
My only gripe is that my car takes a while to start
‘Cos there’s blood in the oil again
Blood in the oil blood in the oil
The engine doesn’t run
Blood in the oil blood in the oil
there's blood in the oil again
I get my cocoa from a mob that sells it to me on the cheap
They tell me sweat and tears keep us all content
and the kerosene lamp gives me nothing but a flicker
‘cos there’s blood in the oil again
Blood in the oil blood in the oil
The flame is burning red
Blood in the oil blood in the oil
There's blood in the oil again
Blood in the oil blood in the oil
The engine doesn’t run
Blood in the oil blood in the oil
There's blood in the oil again
Blood in the oil blood in the oil
The bloodstains won’t wash out
Blood in the oil blood in the oil
There's blood in the oil again

PREDATOR
Just give it up just let it go you’re wasting your time
you’ve taken it too far and you’re out of line
Just give it up just let it go its desperate now
still think you’re gonna get what you want somehow
The way you walk you’re a predator hunting for prey
The way you talk you’re a predator...
Just give it up just let it go you’ve crossed boundaries
you’ve taken it too far you’re a fucking sleaze
Just give it up just let it go you’re predatory
So fuck your sense of pride and just leave it be
The way you walk, you’re a predator hunting for prey
The way you talk, you’re a predator...
In the shadows hunting for prey
In the streets you’re hunting for prey
At the bar you’re hunting for prey
Won’t you fucking go away?
The way you walk, you walk and talk
You're a predator hunting for prey
The way you walk, you’re a predator hunting for prey
The way you talk, you’re a predator...

CORRUPTION
Batter with the baton when the bosses feel threatened
Do you ever question motives or do you just comply?
Do you follow orders when they seem unjust
When you’re told to cover up and when you’re told to lie?
Oi Oi!
Tell me officer
I wanna know
Where do you stand when the line you draw is crossed
by the powers from above, does it fucking bother you?
Their corruption
Thrives on you
When they pull the strings do you sever all the ties
Or do you run along with the bullshit and the lies?
Do you turn a blind eye when you know its unjust?
Do you think alone or do you you leave your mind to rust?
Oi Oi!
Tell me officer
I wanna know
Where do you stand when the line you draw is crossed
by the powers from above, does it fucking bother you?
Their corruption
Thrives on you
Corrupted and bloated are the hands where the power lies
In those deformed hands, every shred of hope dies
Corrupted and bloated are the hands where the power lies
Open your eyes, open your eyes
Oi Oi!...

GONNA BLOW
There’s no time to waste start a family
Get a car and house before you grow too old
Life is a race I’m lagging far behind
it’s getting out of hand I can’t keep control
I’m one mind with two arms and a fuse that's not so long
I’m one mind with two arms and a fuse that's getting shorter everyday
Gonna fucking blow
It’s ingrained into our society
juggle jobs and life develop health issues
It’s all normalised and washed away with drink
The clock is ticking down there’s too much to do
I’m one mind with two arms and a fuse that's not so long
I’m one mind with two arms and a fuse that's getting shorter everyday
Gonna fucking blow
“Tough shit my friend, just put up with it grit your teeth and fight!”
That's your advice? Now tell me this
Where can I opt out? Where are my choices?
If this social mould fits so fucking well then why am I in crisis?
I’m gonna fucking blow

TILL THE DAY I DIE
My privacy is taken away from me
It doesn’t exist in a world so mad for information
My activity is monitored constantly
I’m a number and a list of stats just for your satisfaction
Your eyes are burning right through
Burning right through the back of my skull
Your eyes are watching me until the day i die
Till the day
You own my face its saved to a database
The colour of my eyes the lines the cracks the scars all features
I can’t embrace this invasion of my space
As the relentless search for data sweeps through darker reaches
Your eyes are burning right through
Burning right through the back of my skull
Your eyes are watching me until the day i die
Till the day
I can try and hide but there’s always someone watching
A thousand eyes around me and they capture everything
My postcode my name my birthplace my street
My workplace my face my enemies and my friends
Your eyes are burning right through
Burning right through the back of my skull
Your eyes are watching me until the day i die
Till the day

ASSEMBLY LINES AND MISERY
Clock in
Clock out
Workin’ workin’ workin’ everyday
Clock in
Gotta gotta gotta get paid
Clock out
Every day every day every day every day
Clock in and clock out and work your life away
It’s a travesty
You acquaint yourself with misery
Day by day by day
In a factory
For a faceless corporate company
Work your life a way
Assembly lines and misery
Day by day by day
Doesn’t really seem like fun to me
Work your life away
A windowless room and a coffee machine
Day by day by day
Doesn’t really seem like living the dream
Work your life away

ZOMBIE
Joining the ranks of the living dead
A smile with no feeling just to cover up the dread
Of another day at work, the mundanity
Clock in clock out It’s insanity!
I lost my mind killed off by a lack of stimulation
Lost initiative lost a shit to give, lost the will to live
I’m fading out
And I
I’m dead inside
From the boredom I try to hide
A mindless zombie
Rotting away decomposing
As the clock slowly ticks rigor mortis setting in
Another day at work, it’s killing me again
The routine never changes, It’s driving me insane!
I lost my mind, killed off by a lack of stimulation
Lost initiative, lost a shit to give, lost the will to live
I’m fading out
And I
I’m dead inside
From the boredom I try to hide
A mindless zombie

PAY YOUR SINS AWAY
Pay your sins away
God needs your money he could use another shrine
Another church, cathedral or a statue would be fine
A solid gold crucifix will keep you safe from hell
Where the poor and tainted miscreants are left to dwell
God wants your money yeah god wants it all
Buy place in heaven with your hard-earned capital
You can use your riches to cleanse your holy soul
A generous donation negates lack of self control
Look up at the sky get on your knees and pay
pay pay pay pay your sins away
You can live guilt free starting from today
Pay your sins away
God needs your money its to keep the devil out
Help him with your savings if you want to be devout
The holy golden gates of heaven, they don’t come cheap
A prayer with no cash will make the baby Jesus weep
God takes your money its all part of the deal
See a wealthy pastor put your hands together kneel
The adverts and the billboards are all calling out to you
Mass marketing to keep the lords word in the public’s view
Look up at the sky get on your knees and pay
pay pay pay pay your sins away
You can live guilt free starting from today
Pay your sins away

BUILT TO BREAK
I need a replacement its already outdated
Yet another malfunction fucking data corruption
Obsolescence, pre-planned its a devious method
A way of shortening the lifespan of all sought-after goods
Built to break in our hands
Built to fall apart with a well placed mistake
Intentional malfunctions that result in destruction
Built fucking break
Lost to decay it all soon rots away
Inflated demands are rising, and the prices are climbing
Never satisfied a newer model takes the reigns
and all we do is fuel the fire we’re just oxygen to flames
Built to break in our hands
Built to fall apart with a well placed mistake
Intentional malfunctions that result in destruction
Built fucking break
Disposable replaceable
Its out of date a month has passed
Nothing’s ever built to last
Everything is set to expire
Disposable replaceable
Faults are there placed purposely
Badly soldered circuitry
Dodgy parts loosened screws and wires
Obsolescence pre-planned its a devious method
A way of shortening the lifespan of all sought-after goods.
